After staring for a moment, Situ Xing suddenly sighed, "Oh, I really can't accept old age. The ancient martial arts world in the future will be the era of your young people. We, the old people, should indeed retire."

When I heard what the beggar said, I couldn't help but laugh, "Brother, I think your heart is very energetic. If you really retire and retire, it would be strange if the world is not in chaos."

"Damn, boy, what do you mean? Do you mean? Do you mean I'm disrespectful to you?" Si Tuxing stared at him with a beard and looked like he was always in a fight.

"Hehe, brother, you still know me and know what I need now. Come on, I didn't feel very satisfied with the last time. Let's continue today to see how I am different from before after breaking through the tenth level." I smiled evilly, and it looked like a traitor.

"Damn, you dare to fool me, no, the place where you beat me last time still hurts, so I won't be fooled again. You want to find old man Duanmu, his kung fu is not bad." As soon as I heard that I was going to practice tricks with him, Situ Xing's face changed suddenly. The painful lesson last time is still vivid in my mind. It is okay to make a mistake once, but if you make the same mistake twice, you will not be forgiven. With a huh, the beggar turned around and ran away, and the speed was definitely beyond his previous moment.

Chapter 239 New Cooperation

The largest office in the villa.

"Xinghun, is Qingxuan okay?" Looking at the young man in front of him, Liu Yunxiao always felt uncomfortable. After all, for an ordinary person who has no knowledge of ancient martial arts, even an outstanding figure like Liu Yunxiao was a little touched.

"Uncle, please rest assured. I have already seen Qingxuan just now. Now, except for her weak body, she is fine. I think she should be able to recover if she has to take care of her for two more days. This time, Qingxuan suffered so much. Xinghun is responsible for her. I also ask for punishment from her uncle." I said sincerely. I have always been worried about what happened that day. Although Qingxuan and others did not say anything, I always feel a little guilty about Qingxuan.

"Haha, Xinghun, everything has passed, why do you mention it? Qingxuan and the others did not have any accidents, just a little scare. Don't take it to heart, Brother Yunxiao will not blame you. After two days Qingxuan recovers, everything will be over. Just treat it as a nightmare." Duanmu Zhiren, who was standing beside him, laughed at him when the atmosphere was a little awkward.

"Well, the old man is right, Xinghun, I don't mean to blame you at all. Don't take this matter to heart. The matter will pass. I just hope that Qing Xuan will be happy and happy in the future. I have nothing to ask for anything else." After all, he was a businessman. Under Duanmu Zhiren's eyes, Liu Yunxiao was not too difficult. Moreover, he knew the situation at that time very well. The reason for this was that this was because a father cared for his daughter. After all, the man in front of him almost killed his precious daughter.

"Uncle, please rest assured. Xinghun promises that there will be no more similar things in the future and that Qingxuan will not be hurt at all." I said sincerely again.

"Okay, hehe, Xinghun, we believe you will do what you say." Duanmu Zhiren said with a smile, paused, and then said, "Xinghun, what are your plans next?"

Hearing this sentence, I smiled bitterly in my heart and said, "Oh, it's coming again, where is the favor!"

"Xinghun is a younger generation, so please give me some advice." Since my grandfather passed away, I have become more respectful to my elders.

It seemed that he was very satisfied with my respectful attitude. Duanmu Zhiren said with a smile on his face, "Star Soul, you should know that we have reached an agreement with the East China Sea Crystal Palace."

Nodded slightly, I didn't say anything.

"I know you and Miss Fu (Bright Starry Sky) had a bit of a festive holiday in the past, but as the saying goes, it is better to resolve enemies than to get them together, so Brother Yun Xiao and I want to be a partner to help you resolve this hatred. After all, there will be a single injury between the two tigers. If you do not calm the fight, there will never be peace in the peerless China region. This will not benefit both sides, but will instead benefit others. What do you think?"

"Grandpa Duanmu, I understand what you said. I know that the whole thing, Brilliant Star Sky is also a victim. The most important thing is that the people from Duanchou family are making trouble. I, Leng Xinghun, is a person with a clear grudge. This time, Brilliant Star Sky can come here to treat me without grudges. I have already planned to stop trouble with them in Xiaoyao Holy City. Since you have proposed it today, Grandpa Duanmu, I, Leng Xinghun, promised to cancel the holiday with Xiaoyao Holy City from now on. In the future, as long as they can live peacefully with Aotian and maintain the balance of the power of the peerless China region, I will not make things difficult for them anymore." I know that this is the only time for me to improve my relationship with Brilliant Star Sky, because

In order to attack me twice, the relationship between me and her was already indestructible. Only the defeat of one side could be completely resolved. However, the short-term cooperation in the sea of ​​despair gave me a further understanding of the brilliant starry sky. However, because each other's status and status in the peerless determines the hostile relationship between us, although both of us know that each other's hatred is actually too many misunderstandings, it is difficult to change any more. However, this time the opportunity was different. Grandpa Duanmu came forward to be the mediator. Due to the relationship between us, this made us have a good step down, so the mediation of things was naturally smooth.

"Haha, naturally, Miss Fu has figured it out. The peerless China region is so big that it is not controlled by a Xiaoyao Holy City. Instead of cooperating with others, it is better to come with Aotian. This will benefit both parties." As a person who has been in the mall for many years, Duanmu Zhiren looks like a tone of negotiating business.

"Xinghun, your situation is not very good now. What are your plans?" Liu Yunxiao, who was silent on the side, suddenly asked.

I had a headache at this moment. It was obvious that the two of them wanted me to join them and join the Xiaoyao Holy City. Indeed, for merchants, maximizing interests is their goal. Joining the Xiaoyao Holy City established by the East China Sea Crystal Palace is naturally their best choice. In this way, their power will be greater and the coverage will be wider. With my joining, it will be a guarantee for them that as long as I do not fall into the lonely star, their interests will not be lost. For this reason, they naturally have to do their best. Therefore, from the beginning, they have used scheming on me and want to use various means to let me go.

Looking at the expectant eyes of the two, I smiled bitterly, "Just now, my brother had already made an appointment with me on behalf of the contemporary successor of Yunxiaowangyan City. I have agreed. But here I want to make an announcement that due to the teacher's training, I, Leng Xinghun, will never join any force organization. Leng Xinghun will always be a lonely star alone in the sky and will never bow to any force. As for my current situation, haha, to be honest, I don't think it's too bad. With my current ability, I have the confidence to deal with all the dangers. As for Qingxuan and the others, I don't think I have to worry about her. My uncle will naturally not allow such a thing to happen. And as long as I am in the Eastern Emperor, I think a large-scale interception will not occur. It is a very safe place, otherwise the attack on me will not be so trashed."

When they heard my words, they were obviously disappointed, but they didn't seem to have any surprises in my answer. After all, they have heard of my behavior for a long time, and today they just want to work harder.

"Since that's the case, Xinghun, then you and Aotian's Fury and others are preparing to make an alliance. Let's make an appointment to meet and discuss the details of the alliance." Seeing that there would be no other results, Duanmu Zhiren finally gave up.

"Okay, Grandpa Duanmu, uncle, I will go online now. Let's talk about this with Kuangfu and others. Xinghun will take the blame first." After that, I respected myself and then turned around and left. Although I was confident that this decision would be beneficial to Aotian without any harm, Kuangfu was Aotian's gang leader after all, and all the final decisions would be made by him.

Above the cliffs surrounded by clouds and smoke, there is a fortress. The magical construction is simply amazing and a masterpiece of doubt. This fortress built in Yunxiao is the Yunxiao City, one of the three forbidden places with supreme status in the ancient martial arts world.

"City Lord, the young master is really messy this time. If this continues, I think the first one to be eliminated in this battle is our Yunxiao Wanyan City. So far, the other two developing forces can be said to be very exciting, especially the Soul Refining Valley in Saibei. After winning this competition, their power is at its peak. If this continues, the winner of this tournament will undoubtedly be the Soul Refining Valley." A deep voice said anxiously.

Without any answer, the old man called the city lord was still sitting quietly on the chair, sipping the fragrant tea in the cup. At this moment, a pretty little girl with a little maid walked into the room and said aloud, "Report to the city lord, Mr. Pingding, a tour, asked to see the city lord."

Gently put down the teacup in his hand, the city lord smiled and said, "I'm back very quickly, let him come in."

After a sound of footsteps as light as a mosquito, a middle-aged man walked into the room with great strides and came straight to the city lord, saying, "The parade is pacified, I have met the city lord."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, let's sit down. Zhigao, this battle is Zixuan, who represents our Yunxiao Wanslei City. I think he will be responsible for what he does, so you don't have to worry about it. Let's wait and see what happens. We must have confidence in them. Okay, you can go down first." In an understatement, the city lord rejected all the voices with objections.

Although he was unwilling to give up, this was the city lord's intention after all. No one here dared to contradict the city lord. After showing off his salute, except for the newly arrived tour, everyone else had already left.

"A Ding, why are you back? Can't the young master use you?" the old man asked lightly.

"No, the city lord, the villain came back this time for other things." Pingding replied respectfully.

"Oh, what can make you go back to Yunxiao Wanyan City without any effort? I guess this matter is quite serious." The city lord was obviously very interested. This subordinate's calmness is famous. Unexpectedly, there was something that made him anxious like this, and what had to be said in person? Now that the communication is so developed, although Yunxiao Wanyan City is also an ancient family with thousands of years of history, there is still a sense of keeping pace with the times, otherwise it would have been swallowed up by the torrent of history.

After a pause, the patrol calmed down the thoughts in his mind, and then spoke, "I wonder what the city lord has to say about Gu Xinghan?"

"Oh, why did you suddenly ask him? I have heard of this person. I heard that he is very good. He is a god-like figure in the peerless world. Unfortunately, he disappeared mysteriously at the last moment of this competition and became the biggest doubt now. If he had appeared at that time, the title would not be certain. Our Yunxiao Wanyan City and Donghai Crystal Palace would not be at a disadvantage at this moment." Obviously, the old man still has some understanding of everything in the peerless world, and is not a stubborn old man who cannot escape the world.

Chapter 240 Mysterious Life

"City lord can you tell that Gu Xinghan was attacked by someone before the decisive battle, and was seriously injured and almost died, so he was unable to participate in the finals?" Pingding said in a deep voice.

"Will this happen? Could it be that the people from Saibei Soul Refining Valley did it?" the old man frowned and asked. Although he could do anything to win, assassination was inconsistent with the image of the three major families with thousands of years of history.

"It's not clear what's going on. According to the information, two waves of people attacked Gu Xinghan. One wave has not yet verified its identity, and the other wave is Japanese. I just don't know if these two waves have anything to do with each other?" This is the most depressing thing that made the pacification. He was engaged in intelligence and had no information about the first wave of killers. Those people seemed to have suddenly disappeared from this world.

Looking at the moment, he looked solemn and calm. The city lord said lightly, "A Ding, you have been with me for so many years. Don't I understand your personality? Although this may be done by Soul Refining Valley, you won't have to come back to report to me. Let me tell you, what is it? I don't want to go around in circles." Although his tone was very plain, this was like being struck by lightning in Pingding's ears. He had a respect for the city lord in front of him.

"City Lord, I don't know what to say." Suddenly, I knelt down in front of the old man and said in pain.

The city lord didn't seem to have thought about what would make such a tough man difficult to make a decision? This is something that has never been done before.

"A Ding, in fact, you have a certain idea in your heart, otherwise you wouldn't have rushed back from all the way. Tell me, since I have decided, don't regret it." The old man's tone was still plain.

Suddenly, Pingding looked up at the old man and said resolutely, "City Lord, Gu Xinghan may be the eldest son."

"What?" Hearing this, the old man who was as calm as a mountain just now suddenly shook his whole body and his face changed a few times. His body, which was still in the chair the moment before, appeared in front of Pingding who had kneeled down, pulled it up and said sternly, "You say it again."

At this moment, calmness became much calmer. Looking at the old man who was close to him, he said calmly, "I suspect Gu Xinghan is the eldest son who has been missing for more than 20 years."

"Do you have evidence?" the old man said word by word.

"There is no conclusive evidence yet, but judging from what I found out, many details matched the situation back then, and I also found out that there was also an ancient jade when he entered the orphanage." He said calmly.

"Ancient jade? Then the ancient jade is also on him now?" When the old man heard about the ancient jade, he seemed very excited.

Shaking his head, he calmed down and said, "No, according to the orphanage rules, these things will not be returned to him when the person involved is sixteen years old. However, because Gu Xinghan suddenly disappeared when he was eight years old and did not appear again until less than a year ago. So I think this ancient jade has not yet arrived at him. However, I heard that there was an activity in the orphanage for a while. Gu Xinghan would go back. At that time, I think he should go back to the ancient jade."

"Do Zixuan know about this?" the old man said coldly.

"Please rest assured, the city lord, only the villain knows this, but others don't know it. Even when I go to the orphanage to investigate, the villain went there himself. The villain dared not pretend to be others." He calmed down and said with a firm look on his face.

"Okay, you did a good job, let me think about this." The old man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that nothing else knew about this.

At this time, Pingding suddenly pulled out a dagger and quickly penetrated it into his heart. Fortunately, the city lord is one of the top masters today. Although he was in a mess at this moment, he still kept the master's alertness and discovered the move to calm down in time. He smashed the dagger with a slight difference, saving Pingding's life.

"Why do you do this?" the old man asked sternly.

"City lord, this matter is extraordinary. The fewer people know, the better. When my subordinates rushed back to report this matter, they would have the awareness of death. For the sake of Yunxiao's thousand-year-old foundation in the city, my subordinates would die without regrets." It seemed that they had made every effort to calm their desire to die.

"No, you can't die. I was wrong once back then. I must not be wrong again this time. And things are just a guess. There are many coincidences in the world. Let's wait until Gu Xinghan gets the ancient jade." The old man made the decision.

"But the city lord, what if," Pingding wanted to say something else.

"Ading, stop talking. I am responsible for all the consequences. For this matter, I have lost a loyal subordinate. I don't want to lose you again. All sins arise from me and will be solved by me. I have lost too much for this matter over the years. Since God has given me this opportunity, I must seize it well. I don't want any more regrets. Okay, Ading, stop doing stupid things. You have done a good job. Go back and rest. I hope you have let go of this matter when you wake up tomorrow. Zixuan needs you very much." The old man said in a deep voice.

"Yes, the city lord, I know what to do." After saying that, Pingdang Shili left, and only the city lord who was in deep thought remained in the huge study.

When I appeared in the world again, I found that I had left the land of killing and returned to my home in the imperial city.

Just like when I left last time, my home was still as neat as possible. It seems that the female housekeeper Xu Meng manages the house very well.

After walking out of the room, I walked straight to the garden outside the house. Although I didn’t spend long time with Xumeng, I knew Xumeng was a NPC who likes flowers very much. Whenever I had free time, she would stay tirelessly in her flower garden.

Sure enough, as I expected, as soon as I walked into the flower garden, I saw Xu Meng's busy figure, passing through the flowers like a butterfly. The beautiful posture made me intoxicated. I couldn't help but clap my applause.

As if shocked by my applause, Xu Meng's figure paused suddenly and turned to look at the place where he was making a sound. After seeing the person clearly, the girl's face turned from surprise to ecstasy, and then shot at me like an arrow. Sweat. When did Xu Meng's movements become so agile? Before I could react, the girl hugged me and refused to let go for a long time. I was dizzy. Don't exaggerate it. How long hasn't been seen? Fortunately, there is no one else here except us, otherwise I really don't know what to do. For the girl, I am always a low-key player, although I already have two girlfriends.

After much persuasion, Xu Meng finally let go of her little hand, but she didn't seem to expect that her reaction would be so excited. At this moment, the girl was shy and didn't dare to look up at me. She just stood aside and kept pulling the corner of her clothes, not daring to make any other moves.

In order to break the depressing atmosphere in front of me, I immediately changed the topic and said, "Xu Meng, the flowers you planted are getting more and more beautiful. Come on, can you introduce them to me?"

Although he is still embarrassed, Xu Meng is very happy to be able to introduce his most proud works to his master. You should know that if you do this, it is actually largely for the owner's praise. The owner's praise is the greatest affirmation of his work.

So Xu Mengzai carefully explained the characteristics and uses of each flower in the flower garden. I heard that I was very open-minded. I really didn’t expect that there would be so much knowledge in the flower. I used to underestimate this thing, thinking that there was nothing better than good looking and smelling. (Sorry, Axe really knows much about flowers, so I had to mention it in one sentence. Please don’t be surprised by everyone)

Suddenly, a light of inspiration appeared in my mind. I ignored the disturbance of Xu Meng's explanation and said, "Xu Meng, remember that last time you mentioned that you were a master-level implant technique, right?"

"Yeah, yes, why doesn't Young Master Han believe in Xumeng?" He raised his cute little mouth, and it was obvious that Xumeng was very angry at my rude interruption.

Seeing this, I knew I had made another mistake. Alas, it was so troublesome to be with a girl. "Ah! Xumeng, don't be angry. I didn't mean it. I just wanted to ask you for help in something, so I just want to confirm whether you have enough abilities."

When he heard that I had something to help me, Xumeng immediately became smiled. He should know that his existence was to share his worries for his master. But until now, the master has never formally asked to do things for him. This is a bit useless for a high-intelligent NPC like Xumeng. Therefore, Xumeng always feels a sense of loss. But I thought that if the master had something to do by himself today, it would not make Xumeng excited. All the unhappiness just now was wiped out.

"Master Han, what do you want Xumeng to do? Xumeng can do a lot of things."

"Well, Xu Meng, can you grow medicinal materials?" I asked. You know, besides being a carpenter, I am also a pharmacist, and I am a pharmacist who was personally guided by the medical saint Mr. Huatuo. The "Huatu Medical Sutra" in my hand is definitely the most amazing book in the pharmacist world. This time I accidentally got the holy artifact Shennong Treasure Cauldron. Hehe, if there are any good medicinal materials, the medicine I made is definitely the best.

"Growing medicinal materials? That's right, but relying on my current planting techniques, I can only plant some ordinary medicinal materials. If I want to plant advanced medicinal materials, I have to be a master's level, and I also have to master relevant knowledge." Xu Meng said.

"Is it difficult to get promoted to a master level?" I asked with some concern. I know that it is very difficult to practice in a peerless life profession. It is easy to say that as long as you keep doing it and increase your proficiency, you can still reach a certain level of level after a longer period of time. But once you enter the advanced level, you will not simply practice it. It depends on a certain degree of talent. If you have high talent, and if you practice hard, you may be able to get promoted soon. But if you have different talents or even lack talent, then don't dream of advancing. Now Xumeng is already at the master level. If you want to get promoted to the master level again, the difficulty is not a little bit.

"Hehe, Young Master Han, don't worry, I have a high talent in planting skills. As long as I work hard, I will have a chance to be promoted to the master level. Okay, since that's the case, I will specialize in planting medicinal materials in the future. As long as Young Master Han can provide me with some high-end medicinal seeds, I think I will succeed soon." Xu Meng said confidently.
